$250,000 Ferrari gone 'bust'!
|
|
Woops!
Quote:
A YOUNG man wrecked a Ferrari worth a quarter of a million dollars, but escaped serious injury, when he crashed into a Stobie pole at Walkerville today.
The driver and his passenger have been taken to Royal Adelaide Hospital for treatment after the accident just before noon.
Both men walked from the wreckage, leaving the expensive five-year-old 360 Modena model literally wrapped around the pole on Lansdowne Ave.
The car, valued at around $250,000, crashed a few minutes after residents saw it "zinging" past their homes at high speed.

Insurance company will want to talk to those residents, so it can get out of paying

and they shouldn't have to pay. I'm amazed they both survived  by the statements made by the residents of that neighbourhood he was doing in excess of 100kph, it's just a miracle that no-one else was injured.

If you were the owner of that car would you have been driving it like a tosser to begin with?
I'd be more upset to see a lamborghini wrapped around a pole.
